En el cristal de mi copa
tu cara se reflejó,
y aquel poco de licor
que yo me llevé a la boca
de veneno me sirvió.
Mientes como hay Dios

Long live Malaga the beautiful,

for her I would give my life

Orejón | Viernes con una Letra

The first time I went to Sevilla I met this guy, José Luís.  No, it wasn't like that.  You could say he was a friend of a friend.

If you want to skip the story

Just scroll down to the bottom of the post for today's letra and a really cool video.

So José Luís is one of those people who is constantly telling jokes.

Well, constantly saying funny things is more like it because they're not jokes, not exactly.  Some people call them jokes, but they're not what I have ever understood to be jokes.  I guess because I'm American.  And not just that, but I'm from Oregon.

José Luís is always saying funny things and making himself, and other people if they get it, laugh. 

You could call him witty, but it's more than that.  It's witty in a Sevillano way.  Ingenioso.  Agudo.  That's what the dictionary is calling it.

Tangos.  And a brief departure from the bulerías series.  I'll come back to it soon. Last weekend Ricardo taught us some Tangos de Málaga.  And this weekend, we'll get more.  Below, a letra he sang for us.

Tangos...

(...de Málaga, del Piyayo, del Titi)

Te pongas como te pongas
si eres fea lo serás 
por mucho que te compongas
